Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

It costs £450 for a child to have a bed space and the specialist care they need a day.  For an extra £50 they can have a hydrotherapy session which is beneficial to children with all kinds of disabilities. 

Also this inspirational event aims to remind the community how a good night's sleep for families with a life limited child is hard to achieve, and Acorns round-the-clock support is often a lifeline.

If we can exceed the target of £500 this would give Mandi (and Phil) the much needed break and respite they need from caring for Jake and Max 24/7 and to be able to recharge their batteries and keep family life as normal as possible. This also goes for other Acorns families.

So please give generously.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate.
